The British International School Istanbul has a worldwide<br />

reputation for the education it provides. It is a leading private<br />

international school in Turkey, offering a modified National<br />

Curriculum, IGCSE and the International Baccalaureate<br />

Diploma Programme. We are an academic school and we send<br />

our graduates to universities throughout the world,<br />

predominantly to the UK and USA.<br />

Our ethos is welcoming and embracing. We inspire student<br />

enthusiasm, confidence, and independence and we welcome<br />

new students throughout the year. We seek to instil in all of<br />

our students an awareness and esteem of different cultures,<br />

beliefs, skills, values and personalities. As world citizens we<br />

celebrate both our shared humanity and cultural diversity. We<br />

are a coeducational community that includes students from<br />

over 55 nationalities, between the ages of 2 1 ⁄ 2to 18 years. We<br />

place a high emphasis upon the acquisition of languages and<br />

offer German, Spanish, French and Turkish. In addition to our<br />

foreign languages we also offer excellent support for English<br />

as a Second Language; students who join us with very limited<br />

English quickly reach the stage where they are fully able to<br />

access our curriculum.<br />

We are non-selective and are fortunate to be able to offer<br />

full-time special needs support throughout both the primary<br />

and secondary departments.<br />

We have an excellent creative arts programme and offer<br />

music, theatre and visual arts in the <strong>IB</strong> Diploma Programme.<br />

We also have a very strong PE department boasting school<br />

teams in several sports. In addition we offer an extensive range<br />

of extracurricular activities both after school and timetabled.<br />

Our PTA is an active body that plays a major role in the<br />

development of our school.<br />

BISI is a happy, caring community with parents, students,<br />

staff and leadership teams all working together to make our<br />

school great. We have a city campus for pre school and<br />

primary and a purpose built campus at Zekeriyaköy for pre<br />

school, primary and secondary, just four miles from the Black<br />

Sea and close to the beautiful Belgrade Forest.<br />

The BISI is now accredited by the Council of British<br />

International Schools (COBIS).<br />
